Owner Comments:

A new reverse hub for the Morgan dollar design was put into use in 1900. In A Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars, Dave Bowers writes: 'Coins made from dies made from this hub have less definition to the eagle's breast feathers, introducing another aspect into grading techniques.' It is obviously impossible to grade any coin without knowing what was there to start with.
